This draft European Standard is submitted to CEN members for unique acceptance procedure. It has been drawn up by the Technical
Committee CEN/TC 51.

If this draft becomes a European Standard, CEN members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which
stipulate the conditions for giving this European Standard the status of a national standard without any alteration.

This draft European Standard was established by CEN in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other language
made by translation under the responsibility of a CEN member into its own language and notified to the CEN-CENELEC Management
Centre has the same status as the official versions.

CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia,
Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania,
Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and United
Kingdom.

Recipients of this draft are invited to submit, with their comments, notification of any relevant patent rights of which they are aware and to
provide supporting documentation.

 NORM DRAFT FprEN 14216:2013 (E)

Foreword
This document (FprEN 14216:2013) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 51 Cement and
building limes, the secretariat of which is held by NBN.

This document is currently submitted to the Unique Acceptance Procedure.

This document will supersede EN 14216:2004.

This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).

For relationship with EU Regulation(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document.

This document includes a Bibliography.

The various stages in the development of a European Standard for common cement, in response to the
preliminary Mandate given to CEN by the EC and the EFTA, are described in EN 197-1. It is indicated that, in
view of the large numbers of different cements involved, it was considered necessary to separate the
"common cements", which are now covered by EN 197-1, from special cements i.e. those with special
properties or those having hardening processes not mainly dependent on the hydration of calcium silicates.

The low heat property for common cements is covered by EN 197-1.

A need for control of heat development during hydration of concrete is referred to in EN 206-1. Classification
of cements with respect to heat of hydration is one method whereby heat development of concrete can be
controlled. The purpose of this European Standard is therefore to specify the heat of hydration for very low
heat special cements. Composition and other requirements are those specified in EN 197-1 for common
cements. Conformity criteria are additionally specified.

The requirements in this European Standard are based on the results of tests on cement in accordance with
EN 196, Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 5, Part 7, Part 8 and Part 9. The scheme for the evaluation of conformity in
EN 197-2 is applicable to very low heat special cements.

Introduction
It is recognised that different cements have different properties and performance. Those performance tests
now available (i.e. setting time, strength, soundness and heat of hydration) have been included in this
European Standard. In addition, work is being carried out by CEN/TC 51 to identify any additional tests which
are needed to specify further performance characteristics of cement. Until further performance tests are
available it is highly recommended that the choice of cement, especially the type and/or strength class in
relation to the requirements for durability depending on exposure class and type of construction in which it is
incorporated, follows the appropriate standards and/or regulations for concrete valid in the place of use.

1 Scope
This European Standard defines and gives the specifications of six distinct very low heat special cement
products and their constituents. The definition of each cement includes the proportions in which the
constituents are to be combined to produce these distinct products in a single strength class having a limited
heat of hydration value. The definition also includes requirements the constituents have to meet and the
mechanical, physical, chemical and heat of hydration requirements for these products. This European
Standard also states the conformity criteria and the related rules. Necessary durability requirements are also
given.

In addition to the specified requirements, an exchange of additional information between the cement producer
and user can be helpful. The procedures for such an exchange are not within the scope of this European
Standard but should be dealt with in accordance with national standards or regulations or can be agreed
between the parties concerned.

NOTE 1 The word "cement" in this European Standard is used to refer to very low heat special cement unless
otherwise indicated.

NOTE 2 The risk of early-age thermal cracking in concrete depends upon the properties and execution and is,
therefore, also dependent on factors other than the heat of hydration of the cement.

4 Very low heat special cement

Very low heat special cement is a hydraulic binder, i.e. a finely ground inorganic material which, when mixed
with water, forms a paste which sets and hardens by means of hydration reactions and processes and which,
